When we fast, it allows our cells to rebuild and repair and excreting the toxins and dead cells. If we failed to eat food that would nourish these cells, and at the same time failed to cleanse the body of accumulated waste, we have not only starved them, but we have also afflicted them with poisons which the body absorbs from the accumulated debris in the system.
This is when juicing plays a vital role. Vegetable juices are the builders of the body, while the fruit juices are the cleansers. All these juices must be raw in order to be vital and of constructive value. Food that is not vital and live such as meat or starches (especially
processed) due to heating will not nourish the body, yet acting as a
filler, forming excessive volumes of uncomfortable gas. On the other hand, with juicing, we are providing our body cells with all the needed essential components which are - the vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, amino acids, enzymes. All these components ease digestions, nourishes the body giving lasting strength and energy. You don't even will feel hungry by afternoon nor sleepy.
Juicing also allows us to increase our servings of fruits and vegetables. In the previous post, which i have touched on Super green foods. Super green foods cleanse, balance, and nourish the cells are more towards therapeutic purposes when uses at higher dosage. When for optimum health, a little of 5-10grams a day will be sufficient and beneficial.
However, thing to be noted when juicing, it contains calories, and when you add sugars to it, it will have more calories. But we do highly encourage people to drink without adding sugar as sugars serve no purpose in nourishing but a nutrients robber. Furthermore, juicing eliminate all of the fibers which is essential for digestive health. Lacking of fibers increase the risk of getting constipation. What we can do is by adding some of the pulp back, taking oats, consuming vegetables and whole grains to obtain the required fibers. Ginger is also being used in juicing recipes as it good for the digestive system.
Juicing is part of life. A great way to make sure to get the recommended daily servings of vegetables and fruits. What you will notice in the long run is that you'll feel better, you look better. Your skin looks better.
We have to be proactive towards our health, taking charge of it but not depending on people.
